Exploring the thermal limits of malaria transmission in the western Himalaya

F. Mozaffer, G. I. Menon, F. Ishtiaq

This study models how temperature affects malaria parasite development in the western Himalaya and predicts future transmission risks under climate change.

The interplay of active and passive mechanisms in slow axonal transport

R. Maiya, S. Dey, K. Ray, G. I. Menon

The paper models slow axonal transport of ChAT in Drosophila neurons, showing that changes in diffusive fraction during development dominate bleach recovery, and active transport alone cannot explain the data.

Cell adhesion strength and tractions are mechano-diagnostic features of cellular invasiveness

N. Paddillaya, K. Ingale, C. Gaikwad, D. K. Saini, P. A. Pullarkat, P. Kondaiah, G. I. Menon, N. Gundiah

This study quantifies adhesion strength and tractions in cancer and non-cancer cells to correlate with invasiveness, showing invasive cells have lower adhesion strength and higher tractions.

Cargo crowding, stationary clusters and dynamical reservoirs in axonal transport

V. Kumar, A. Vasudevan, K. Venkatesh, R. Maiya, P. Sood, K. Murthy, S. P. Koushika, G. I. Menon

This study develops a simulation model of axonal transport in C. elegans touch neurons, showing that stationary vesicle clusters act as dynamic reservoirs that can be regulated to control cargo flux.

Altered kinetics of circulating progenitor cells in cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) associated vasoplegic patients: A pilot study

S. Nandi, U. R. Potunuru, C. Kumari, A. A. Nathan, J. Gopal, G. I. Menon, R. Siddharthan, M. Dixit, P. R. Thangaraj

This study examines changes in circulating progenitor cells during CPB and finds that reduced early CD34+ and CD34+CD133+ HSC counts predict clinically significant vasoplegia.

Information Integration and Collective Motility in Phototactic Cyanobacteria

S. N. Menon, P. Varuni, G. I. Menon

The paper develops a computational model of phototactic cyanobacteria colonies to determine if cells integrate light information or respond to light sources separately, finding that colony shapes alone cannot distinguish these modes but trajectories can.

Chromatin compaction states, nuclear shape fluctuations and auxeticity: A biophysical interpretation of the epigenetic landscape of stem cells

K. Tripathi, G. I. Menon

The paper models how chromatin compaction and nuclear shape influence auxetic behavior in mouse stem cells during differentiation.

Modeling cell-substrate de-adhesion dynamics under fluid shear

R. Maan, G. Rani, G. I. Menon, P. A. Pullarkat

The paper models cell-substrate de-adhesion dynamics under fluid shear, finding characteristic force and time scales for cell detachment.

Phototaxis as a Collective Phenomenon in Cyanobacterial Colonies

P. Varuni, S. N. Menon, G. I. Menon

This study presents an agent-based model of cyanobacterial phototaxis that simulates collective movement and morphology changes in response to light.

Cargo crowding at actin-rich regions along axons causes local traffic jams in neurons

P. Sood, K. Murthy, T. V. Kumar, M. L. Nonet, G. I. Menon, S. P. Koushika

The paper shows that cargo stalling at actin-rich regions in axons causes local traffic jams, which function as reservoirs to maintain robust cargo flow in neurons.
